Personalized Memory Blocks

"These personalized memory blocks are offered to other parents as a small token of condolence at this heartbreaking time. Helping others honor their babies also helps us remember our little one, Audrey Anne. We are very sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the love and support of those around you." — Alexa and Gregory Elderkin

Losing a child is one of the most profound losses anyone can suffer. That's why we're pleased to offer a special gift that may help you find comfort in this lovely memento that can serve as a reminder of your precious baby.

Alexa and Gregory Elderkin know, first-hand, the heartbreak of losing a child. They were on a trip, passing through Syracuse, when Alexa needed the services of Crouse Hospital. Their daughter, Audrey Anne, was born July 24, 2012. As a way to honor their baby's memory and help ease the pain of others who've lost a child, the couple established the Audrey Anne Elderkin Fund of the Crouse Health Foundation. The purpose: to provide personalized baby memory blocks to other grieving parents.
